Manchester United vs Bodø/Glimt Preview

Manchester United

Ruben Amorim’s first match with Manchester United did not go according to plan. Despite scoring a fast goal in the second minute, the Red Devils still lost points, though they created a handful of dangerous moments. 

Amorim mentioned in a post-match interview that he was unhappy with his players’ actions. However, the abrupt change to playing with three central defenders was a hasty one. 

Against Bodø/Glimt, the hosts are clear favourites considering their squad depth and the home-field advantage of Old Trafford. It also represents a golden opportunity for Ruben Amorim to kickstart his winning streak at the club. 

Manchester United have almost no injury worries. Against Ipswich, Mason Mount, Luke Shaw, Tyrell Malacia and Kobbie Mainoo either appeared on the field or sat on the bench. 

The problems remain exclusively in the centre of defence, where Harry Maguire, Leny Yoro, Lisandro Martínez, and Victor Lindelöf are injured.

Bodø/Glimt

Before the last round, the Norwegians were without losses in the Europa League, but Qarabag grabbed a surprising victory. That result disrupted their momentum and also carried over into their domestic campaign, where they missed the opportunity to secure the championship ahead of schedule. Now, their title hopes hang on the outcome of the final round.

In European competitions, Bodø/Glimt form has been inconsistent. They lost to Crvena Zvezda in the Champions League playoffs. However, their attacking football has remained a constant strength, with the team scoring at least two goals in five of their last six matches. 

On the injury front, things are looking brighter for the Norwegians. Håkon Evjen, Fredrik Sjøvold and Brede Moe managed to recover and will be expected in the starting lineup against the Red Devils.

Manchester United vs Bodø/Glimt Prediction

• Pick: Bodo Glimt (+1.5) Handicap
• Odds: 2.34 (22Bet)
• Score prediction: Manchester United 2-1 Bodø/Glimt

This season, Man United have barely confirmed their status as a favourite with confident victories, and Bodø/Glimt have rarely lost by more than one goal. Their last such defeats came in August and September.

Ruben Amorim will need some time to get the club going. He has an attacking philosophy, but fixing everything at once seems difficult. He has undertaken to thoroughly rebuild the team, which will not happen quickly.

Bodø/Glimt, on the other hand, will try to take their chances. We expect an intense game where the visitors will be able to put up a resistance. Our pick for this encounter would be – Bodø/Glimt (+1.5) handicap.

Manchester United vs Bodø/Glimt Prediction, Betting Tip

• Pick: Both Teams to Score
• Odds: 1.89 (22Bet)

In the last twenty matches, the Norwegians have only left the field without scoring a goal three times. Meanwhile, Manchester’s defence has conceded in 11 of 18 matches this season, and it has allowed too many simple errors even against weaker sides. 

In the first meeting with Amorim in charge, Man United failed to play reliably in defence. Also, Ipswich had plenty of dangerous moments and they could have even won the match if not for the heroics of Andre Onana.

We think that the hosts will find it difficult to keep a clean sheet. Bodø/Glimt are an attacking team, with fast counterattacks. We expect an exchange of goals and our second pick here is both teams to score.
